What's Happening

June 5-6: Preparing for this Weekend’s Mass (Corpus Christi)

All of the Sacraments of the Church are important. All of the Sacraments are gifts from God, gifts which help us grow in His grace. But, among all the Sacraments, there is one that is most important: the Eucharist. Baptism and Confirmation lead to the Eucharist. Marriage and the other Sacraments flow from the Eucharist. […]

4-6 de junio: Anticipando la Fiesta del Cuerpo y Sangre de Cristo

Todos los Sacramentos son importantes. Todos los Sacramentos son dones de Dios, dones que nos ayudan a crecer en Su gracia.

Father Henry Byekwaso of the Diocese of Kampala, Uganda, was an altar server at the Canonization Mass. He recently said: “Stay strong in the […]

June 2: The Month of the Sacred Heart

The entire month of June is traditionally dedicated to the Sacred Heart of Jesus. Devotion to the Sacred Heart is rooted in St. John’s Gospel, where blood and water flowed from Jesus’ side at His Crucifixion. Gazing at the pierced heart of Christ, we marvel at Jesus’ boundless love which led Him to offer Himself […]
